prusaprinters

<p>This kit is a DIY assemble kit for kid. It's approximately a 2:1 Prusa I3 MK3S compose of 23 different parts all 3d print. Each part can be assemble using 3d print screw and a 3d print screwdriver. It is make to be an entertaining and educational kit for learning different components of a 3d printer and practice manuel ability. Of course I had to combine certain parts and remove some but I try to keep it the most realistic as possible. This kit is 100% printable, you don't need any glue, screws or things like that. A perfect kit to practice the next generation of maker !</p> <p>Also this project is still work in progress and this is the first version. In the future I want to improve it and make it more realistic.
